pronounciation of Nyx?
Does anyone know the "correct" pronunciation of Nyx? I've heard it is pronounced like "Nicks," but I would like to know if that is the correct Greek pronunciation of the name. Any help is greatly appreciated!

The Modern Greek pronunciation is NEEKS, but the Classic Greek would be something like NOOKS.Here is a simple guide in Greek phonetics:

'nicks' is right, I think. Good name by the way!
